Baga Beach

The Baga Beach holiday resort is a few miles south of Anjuna,
and is basically an extension of Calangute. Lying in the lee of a
rocky, wooded headland, the only difference between this far
northern end of the beach and its more congested centre is that the
scenery here is marginally more varied and picturesque, and the
beach less crowded. It is a good swimming beach but there are no
promising breaks for surfers. There are lots of other watersports
on offer though, and it is an active, fun beach where there is
usually a lot going on. Hawkers can be an irritation but no more
than on most other popular stretches of sand in Goa; a firm 'no'
usually does the trick.

Baga Beach has the best range of restaurants and liveliest
nightlife in the area, with a number of popular restaurants, beach
bars and clubs to choose from.
